If the cooling fan was hidden inside like this:
(this was an old apple patent for internal phone cooling that never made it into real iphones)
Hypothetical:
The company who made this actively cooled phone took care not to tell anyone there was a fan inside. They knew people would freak out, as in "lololol a fan inside a phone? For what? Phones don't get hot anyway."
This is because most people don't even know that phones throttle (and some phones much more than others). Most people just use their phone for calling, messaging, browsing the net, taking selfies, etc. The only place where heat throttling would show is in graphically intensive games, and again most people won't know cause most play casual 2D games, and the ones who do play graphically intensive games do so on iphones which don't throttle because of how well the games are optimized, and the few people who would play graphically intensive games on android don't care if they throttle and become unplayable cause they don't see mobile as a real gaming platform to begin with.
So this company that released this phone starts getting flak once people realize there's this extra hardware inside that everyone hates for no particular reason, the phone fails miserably in sales despite being the only android phone in the market that doesn't exhibit heat throttling, and from then on every phone manufacturer vows never to do this kind of thing again.
The End.
